    Guilt, Forgiveness, and Reconciliation in Contemporary Music

    IS SORRY REALLY THE HARDEST WORD? GUILT, FORGIVENESS, AND RECONCILIATION IN CONTEMPORARY MUSIC Ariana Sarah Phillips-Hutton Darwin College Department of Music University of Cambridge This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2017 ABSTRACT IS SORRY REALLY THE HARDEST WORD? GUILT, FORGIVENESS, AND RECONCILIATION IN CONTEMPORARY MUSIC Ariana S. Phillips-Hutton Guilt, forgiveness, and reconciliation are fundamental themes in human musical life, and this thesis investigates how people articulate these experiences through musical performance in contemporary genres. I argue that by participating in performances, individuals enact social narratives that create and reinforce wider ideals of music’s roles in society. I assess the interpenetrations of music and guilt, forgiveness, and reconciliation through a number of case studies spanning different genres preceded by a brief introduction to my methodology. My analysis of Arnold Schoenberg’s A Survivor from Warsaw illustrates the themes (guilt, confession and memorialisation) and approach I adopt in the three main case studies. My examination of William Fitzsimmons’s indie folk album The Sparrow and the Crow, investigates how ideals of authenticity, self-revelation, and persona structure our understanding of the relationship between performer and audience in confessional indie music. Analyses of two contemporary choral settings of Psalm 51 by Arvo Pärt and James MacMillan examine the confessional relationship between human beings and God. I suggest that by

    Polish Music since Szymanowski This book looks at Polish music since 1937 and its interaction with political and cultural turmoil. In Part One, the author places musical developments in the context of the socio-political upheavals of inter-war Poland, Nazi occupa- tion, and the rise and fall of the Stalinist policy of socialist realism (1948–54). Part Two investigatesthenatureofthe‘thaw’between1954and1959,focussing on the role of the ‘Warsaw Autumn’ Festival. Part Three discusses how com- posers reacted to the onset of serialism by establishing increasingly indi- vidual voices in the 1960s. In addition to a discussion of ‘sonorism’ (from Penderecki to Szalonek), the author considers how different generations responded to the modernist aesthetic (Bacewicz and Lutoslawski, Baird and Serocki, Gorecki´ and Krauze). Part Four vi ews Polish music since the early 1970s, including the recurring issue of national identity, as well as the arrival of a talented new generation and its ironic, postmodern slant on the past. adrian thomas is Professor of Music at Cardiff University and is a spe- cialist in Polish music. He is the author of monographs on Bacewicz (1985) and Gorecki´ (1997). He also contributed over fifty entries on post-war Polish composers to The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians (2001). He is currently writing a study of Lutoslawski’s Cello Concerto as well as carrying out further research into socialist realism and Polish music in the post-war decade. M usic in the 20th Century general editor Arnold Whittall This series offers a wide perspective on music and musical life in the twentieth century.

The primary characters are radical activists, members of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), increasingly aware of how the Vietnam war, the racism of Cleveland police, the poverty of inner city neighborhoods, and their own alienation as students are all part of the sick “system” which must be overthrown. Inspired by the Columbia University students’ takeover, they plan to ignite the revolution in Cleveland. Ivy Barcelona, a twenty-year-old Case-Western Reserve student, adds the local draft resistance to her militant activities. Her boyfriend, Chuck Leggit, is putting himself through school at Cleveland State. After a lucrative summer bank job proves demeaning, he drops out to work full-time for revolutionary change – thus losing his draft deferment. With Jane Revard, the third major character, he starts an underground newspaper. Jane is twenty-five, a seasoned activist who has worked on Ban the Bomb campaigns, registered voters in Mississippi, visited Hanoi on a peace mission, and helped organize a Welfare Rights group. She has also developed feminist consciousness which she transmits to Ivy. Cleveland’s popular African American mayor, Carl B. Stokes, has calmed the black community after the King assassination and garnered financial support from Cleveland businesses.
